We're looking for a contract engineer with hands-on experience leading the integration of content providers with enterprise Learning Management Systems and Learning Experience Platforms. Our integration layer handles catalog synchronization and learner completion tracking across multiple third-party platforms. We need someone who already knows this space. You won't be figuring out how LMS integrations work; you'll be building them from day one.
**Engagement type & duration: 3-month, contract-to-hire
**Time Commitment: 20-40 hours per week
What You'll Do
Your responsibilities will span new integration development, maintenance of existing partners, and reliability improvements across the platform.
Build new LMS/LXP integrations
Implement integrations with platforms such as Cornerstone OnDemand, Docebo, Oracle Learning, and others as prioritized by the roadmap
Work within our existing Integration framework (Ruby on Rails), following established patterns for catalog building and completion tracking
Handle partner-specific authentication. We've worked with OAuth2, SAML2 assertion-based OAuth, and SFTP to communicate with partner API endpoints. New partners will bring their own requirements
Translate partner API documentation into working catalog upload and xAPI completion tracking implementations
Maintain and extend existing integrations
Maintain existing integrations with Workday CCL, SAP SuccessFactors, Skillsoft Percipio , Seertech, and Degreed
Degreed runs on a separate SFTP/CSV architecture — comfort with legacy patterns alongside modern API-based work is essential
Debug completion tracking issues, catalog sync failures, and authentication edge cases across partners
Improve retry logic, error handling, and observability in the existing framework
Ensure data accuracy and reliability
Ensure catalog payloads (courses, learning paths, lessons, curations) meet partner API specifications and include required metadata fields
Maintain completion tracking accuracy via xAPI statements on course, lesson, and learning path events
Work with caching patterns that prevent duplicate completion submissions
What You'll Need
Proven experience integrating with enterprise LMS or LXP platforms — any of: Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Cornerstone, Oracle Learning, Degreed, Percipio, or comparable systems
Ability to communicate with customers and vendors with courtesy, clarity, and language appropriate to the readers' technical abilities.
Strong Ruby — you'll be navigating and extending an existing Rails codebase and need to move confidently without hand-holding
Deep familiarity with OAuth2 and REST API patterns, including auth flows such as SAML 2.0 assertion exchange
Working knowledge of xAPI (Experience API / Tin Can) for learning record statements
Comfort with SFTP-based file exchange and CSV generation — our Degreed integration runs on a legacy batch file architecture
Ability to read third-party API documentation and implement against it independently
Experience with background job patterns (e.g., GoodJob) and retry/backoff strategies
Cornerstone OnDemand or Oracle Learning API experience is a strong plus
Familiarity with content packaging standards (SCORM, xAPI/cmi5) beyond completion tracking is a plus
Experience in edtech or enterprise learning platforms is a plus
